The Best Movies And TV Shows Arriving On Netflix In April 2024

Sex And The City

While the sequel series And Just Like That continues the franchise in some fun ways, Sex and the City fans will surely be excited to see the entire original series coming to Netflix on April 1. Seen as one of the shows that helped define HBO in the early 2000s, the comedy-drama follows Carrie Bradshaw and her three best friends as they navigate the many ups and downs of their romantic lives in New York City.

While the show is outdated in some areas, it is still a lot of fun to revisit and now Netflix users will have the chance. And Just Like That is sorely missing the presence of the hilarious and bold Samantha and seeing the four iconic friends exploring their wild stories of love and sex is a nice bit of nostalgia that fans can return to.

Joined by best friends Miranda Hobbes, Charlotte York, and Samantha Jones, Sex and the City follows the ups and downs of the characters' romantic relationships, being single, sex, and friendship as 30-something women.

Demetri Martin: Demetri Deconstructed

Netflix is one of the best streaming services when it comes to stand-up comedy. While there are a number of great comedians with specials this month, likely the most anticipated is the return of Demetri Martin to the standup stage on April 2. The hilariously dry and clever comedian has not released a special in five years and his return to the comedy world is an exciting one given his unique style of humor.

Martin recently struck a deal with Netflix to produce two new specials with Demetri Deconstructed being the first. Martin is known for incorporating musical and visual comedy into his act and it will be interesting to see how it has all evolved in the years since his last special. Along with Martin, comedians Neal Brennan and Jimmy Carr also have Netflix specials in April.

Ripley

Following his acclaimed turn in All of Us Strangers, Andrew Scott will play a compelling literary protagonist in Ripley on Netflix on April 4. Scott will take on the role of Tom Ripley, the lead character in several novels by the writer Patricia Highsmith. He is a con artist and master manipulator who is also a serial killer always managing to stay one step ahead of being caught.

Ripley is the latest adaptation of Highsmith's most famous Ripley novel, The Talented Mr. Ripley, which was turned into an acclaimed thriller starring Matt Damon as Ripley. Scott is an extraordinary and compelling actor who will be fascinating to see in this complex role as a character who is charming and easy to like only to also prove himself cold-blooded.

Based on the novel by Patricia Highsmith, Ripley is a drama-thriller written and created by Steven Zaillian.

Parasyte: The Grey

There is still a long wait for The Last of Us season 2, but Netflix offers the latest horror series about parasitic zombies on April 5. Parasyte: The Grey is a new South Korean series directed by Train to Busan filmmaker Yeon Sang-Ho. The show centers around parasitic creatures that fall to Earth from space and begin reflecting humans, turning them into killers.

Sang-ho's work in Train to Busan sets the stage for Parasyte: The Grey to be an action-packed and intense ride from beginning to end. While zombie shows can get tiresome when overdone, he is a director who has proven he can approach the genre in a fresh and exciting way. With the interest in these kinds of stories, Parasyte: The Grey stands a chance of being the latest South Korean project on Netflix to become an international hit.

"Parasyte: The Grey" imagines a world where alien parasites begin taking over human hosts, blending horror with psychological drama. The story follows a young man who forms a symbiotic relationship with his alien parasite, leading to a morally complex journey as they confront other parasites threatening humanity. This adaptation adds a unique twist, focusing on the grey areas of survival, identity, and the essence of being human.

Scoop

April 5 will see a new investigative journalism thriller focusing on a topical subject hitting Netflix. Scoop is a British drama that tells the true story of the BBC's process of securing an exclusive interview with Prince Andrew in the wake of his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein being made public and accusations of abuse on the prince's part.

For fans of movies like She Said and Frost/Nixon, Scoop looks to provide a thrilling look behind the scenes of dedicated journalists who work to uncover the biggest stories of the day. The female-led team of journalists includes a strong ensemble of Billie Piper and Gillian Anderson along with Rufus Sewell as Prince Andrew. With the real-life news story still very fresh in the minds of many people, it will be interesting to see how the movie approaches the fascinating subject matter.

Inspired by real events, Scoop is the inside account of the tenacious journalism that landed an earthshattering interview - Prince Andrew's infamous BBC Newsnight appearance. From the tension of producer Sam McAlister’s high stakes negotiations with Buckingham Palace, all the way to Emily Maitlis’ jaw dropping, forensic showdown with the Prince, Scoop takes us inside the story, with the women who would stop at nothing to get it. To get an interview this big, you have to be bold.

Heartbreak High

Though not necessarily the most well-known series on Netflix, the return of Heartbreak High for its second season on April 11 could see it break through even more. The series is a remake of the teen drama from Australia with this new updated version following the same basic premise of young high school students dealing with the various types of drama that come up in their daily life.

What is interesting is seeing how the times have changed as the show takes a look at the modern issues facing young people today. Of course, there are always certain topics every teen drama will touch on, like romances and the uncertain future, but Heartbreak High is also a modern look at high school life with insight, humor, and heart. The show's fun and complex characters make it a thrill to watch them navigate this world.

Rebel Moon — Part Two: The Scargiver — Netflix Film

While the critical reception of the first Rebel Moon was likely a lot lower than they wanted, Rebel Moon - Part Two: The Scargiver is still a hugely anticipated release coming on April 19. The ambitious project from Zack Snyder is an epic space opera that serves as a retelling of Akira Kurosawa's Seven Samurai. It follows a farmer with a secret past who sets out to recruit a gang of warriors to help protect her village from an oppressive power.

The disappointing reception to the first part surely dampens the upcoming conclusion. However, Snyder is still an exciting filmmaker and it is thrilling to see him operating on a scale this big with it being Netflix's most expensive movie to date. With the story now set up for a more action-packed and interesting conflict, there is still hope for the Rebel Moon franchise.
